You can ask HO to send you that passport or you can make a new passport from your embassy .I don't think there should be an issue as you are no more a refugee ,hence ,why apply refugee law on yourself when you are not a refugee anymore? People have different opinions on it & frankly there is no explanation in the law either of the UN or HO in regards to such circumstances.

you can contact the Travel Document department (where your original passport was kept) using this email and ask them that you need your passport back
